Mexican Liberal Party

The Mexican Liberal Party (PLM) was an anarcho-communist political party in Mexico that was active from 1905 to 1918. The party was formed by a convention of several liberal clubs formed in opposition to Porfirio Diaz's government, and the party supported free speech, free press, and free assembly, as well as anti-clericalism and self-government at the local level. From 1906 to 1911, the PLM was involved in strikes and uprisings in Mexico, and it was in control of northern Baja California at the start of the Mexican Revolution. Under Venustiano Carranza's rule, the PLM was suppressed, and it disbanded in 1918 after Ricardo and Enrique Flores Magon were arrested.
